Mountains shall depart

For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee. - Isa 54:10

This day God gives you the assurance that His grace will not depart from you. Grace of God in your daily life is absolutely important. David proclaims that the grace of God is worthy more than life. Because thy lovingkindness is better than life, my lips shall praise thee.(Ps 63:3). Lord is willing to grant you His grace. You have to receive it and preserve so that it does not leave you. They that observe lying vanities forsake their own mercy.(Jonah 2:8). The material things of this world are in vain and they are the culprit which removes the grace of God from your life. God showed His immeasurable grace on Prophet Jonah. Because of that He identified Jonah to go to Nineveh. But Jonah disobeyed God, believing the material benefit of the world and was sleeping in the lower deck of the ship. He was anxious to see the destruction of the city of Nineveh. He imagined of being comforted under the shadow of a gourd. When the gourd was eaten away by the worm, Jonah was bitter and felt it is rather better to die than to live. When you feel bitter at heart you loose the grace of God. Esau was negligent of his grace “Firstborn”. There fore he lost the grace of God. Looking diligently lest any man fail of the grace of God; lest any root of bitterness springing up trouble you, and thereby many be defiled; Lest there be any fornicator, or profane person, as Esau, who for one morsel of meat sold his birthright. For ye know how that afterward, when he would have inherited the blessing, he was rejected: for he found no place of repentance, though he sought it carefully with tears.(Heb 12:15-17).
Satan tried hard to make Job fall to prey. Satan wanted Job to work against God and say blemish against God, So he tried for it. But Job was not against God. In all this Job sinned not, nor charged God foolishly But he said unto her, Thou speakest as one of the foolish women speaketh. What? shall we receive good at the hand of God, and shall we not receive evil? In all this did not Job sin with his lips. (Job 1:22, 2:10) Job's wife forced him to come out of his truthfulness and blemish God. When a man blemish God, which means he is not truthful to God. Suppose you can say that you have not blemished God, but you are giving room to others to blemish on behalf of you. Blemish against means, saying against God openly. Murmuring is also a way of blemish. Murmuring means not complaining in public but in our heart It’s blemish again. In Job's life, he did not blemish, even at his critical situation and he showed his faithfulness. Don’t murmur in your circumstance; don't say that God has given this problem. Whatever has happened in your life It’s all for good. And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28) In the life of Job, Lord God made him prosper because he is always faithful. So the LORD blessed the latter end of Job more than his beginning: for he had fourteen thousand sheep, and six thousand camels, and a thousand yoke of oxen, and a thousand she asses. He had also seven sons and three daughters. So Job died, being old and full of days. (Job 42:12,13,17). Surely Lord God will make you increase and makes you fruitful.
Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need. - Heb 4:16
